Investigators say Bowman included the phony diploma as a part of her application. Bowman was applying to become a Class III Officer with the CPD.

Bowman’s diploma claimed she received a Bachelor of Science Degree in Criminal Justice from ITT Technical Institute in June 2009. However, a recruiting officer noticed the word “prescribed” on the document was misspelled as “prescrilbed”.

CPD says the diploma was allegedly purchased online for $100. They have also contacted ITT about Bowman and the allegations.
